tecnical question
i have a duo test(ab/ag) that is available in canada in very few places.
but on my waiting time. i call to see if my results were out!
and the nurse say it may takes few days more,because they(batch the samples) and they wait to get more sample and then they run them.
my question is
i knew labs batch samples for nat and pcr teststing!
but is posible to batch sample for a (4 generation test ag/ab combination? or the nurse from testing place dont know what happend in microbilogist lab at the hospital, and she is wrong?
batching sample for elisa ab and antigen ag is confident? if they do it?
ok. so since the nurse told me they batch it( they batch it)
but batching( is mixing with other samples) so what happend if i am neg and some on is pos, or if some is neg but still inside window period but is truth pos.
what the hell
is this batching 100% confident after 13 weeks of unprotected sex?
or is better a individual elisa run testing?
duo test in batching samples is equal elisa test? after 13 weeks?
can i move on
